Casper and Friends

I'm currently organizing my Saturday Morning Cartoons from the year 1991 (the year I turned 10 years old). Luckily I found a website that has our TV-guide (Finnish), back from those days and one of our few channels (TV3), showed cartoons every saturday mornings from 9:00 to 11:25. That was 2 hrs and 25 minutes of pure entertainment for us kids back then! Aaaaany way.. "Casper and Friends" was one of those cartoons that they showed on saturdays. I do remember pretty well that show, and I must say that it wasn't my favorite of those shows and when the intro theme song started playing, I probably went to the kitchen to get some more of those damn good cereal from early 90's (just pure sugar rush).. Aaaaand here we go again.. Damn that nostalgia! Pretty good/average cartoon that had that reliable "turn of the century-animation" kinda look (little that we knew.. we were living the "Last Decade of Cartoon Awesomeness"). Animation was solid, characters were nothing extraordinary to remember, The stories were nothing special but still enough to keep us children sit nice and tight by the TV screen, so that mom and dad could have a bit more relaxing morning than weekdays. If it would have been possible I would've given it the rating of 5 and a half, so I really wasn't sure, should I give it a 5, or 6 stars so that half of a star goes to my good childhood pal, Tony The Tiger! "peliin tiikerin tuo!" or maybe "Put a tiger in your tank".

It may not be as well known as Looney Tunes or Mickey Mouse but there're some enjoyable shorts and characters such as Baby Huey, Herman and Katnip and of course Casper. A lot of the shorts are funny though some of them can get corny at times. if you can find it I highly recommend you check it out.
